Detecting trend reversal on Forex

I know that: "How to detect trend reversal?" maybe a thought question with very complex answer but I will try to make my take on it, and keep it very simple and understandable.

So let’s get started, obviously when trying to detect trend reversal on Forex you have to use tools that were designed for it. You can’t predict it with MACD or RSI because they are trend following indicators. Indicators designed to predict trend reversal are … candles. Japanese always traded reversal strategies, European and US traders are almost always trend following traders.

If you don’t know how to interpret forex candles then do a search on web and find some info, reading correctly candles is easy and you have to know it. Although keep in mind I do not recommend using them on charts smaller then 4H.

Of course … relying only on Japanese techniques can be quiet deceptive so we need something more reliable, we need to have an angel. Trend reversal candles can happen anywhere on the chart, will they always mean end of the trend? … No, the really important candles are those which can be found near support and resistance levels. We want to know if this particular level will be broken or not.

Let’s pretend we have reverse candle near support, is it time to buy some lots? Again the answer is NO. Take your time, the next candle should be white which is confirmation that trend was reversed, there can also be consolidation period near resistance level, which is usually another sign that trend is reversing, in this case I would put long order at the resistance of consolidation block.

Where to put stop loss? I put it about 100 – 200 pips below my order depending on situation. I mean if important resistance or support line is broken and price move fast in opposite direction (eg. 100 pips) then there is really no point in holding this position any longer, trend wasn’t reversed.

Well, I hope this helps some of you, but if you are going to use this techniques then keep in mind they apply to longer timeframes! I use it with 1D charts, if you will use it with 15M chart you are going to blow yourself out.

The word FOREX is derived form Foreign Exchange and is the largest financial market in the world. Unlike many markets, the FX market is open 24 hours per day and has an estimated $1.5 Trillion in turnover every day. This tremendous turnover is more than the combination of all the worlds’ stock markets on any given day. This tends to lead to a very liquid market and thus a desirable market to trade. Unlike many other securities (any financial instrument that can be traded) the FX market does not have a fixed exchange.

Trading Forex reversal is an important task and i really think that understanding reversal is the main fact in trading. In a sense, to make profit you must understand when the market is going to reverse or continue with the trend. In every way knowing the market well is important where i suggest gathering more knowledge is important. To gather knowledge lxmarkets.com helped with their vast educational resources which did helped me to get more of what i can get from the market. lxmarkets.com not only helped me with the educational resources to be a perfect trader but they are also very supportive and their conditions are made in such a way that suits every trading style.

Many new traders will see overbought or oversold in chart, that is because reversal is not made on a craze or impulse. Reversal are rarer than given credit and the small corrections. There is no definitive list of what goes in to reversal. An actual reversal need a global change of sentiment or feeling toward an investment. ECNCAPITAL keep an eye on bond market to know the last turn and notify their traders to take the opportunity.

When we go for trading with Forex we consider trend. Because if we have no knowledge about trend then how will I trade. Trend analysis is also known as technical analysis. Trade12 has a smooth platform which is very fluent and having all technical tools. I can analze market easily with their technical tools. They have low spread as well as high leverage like 1:400.

Understanding Trend is very important to trade profitably. The more you follow the trend the much profit you can earn. We should understand when a trend is continuing and when it is reversing. According to Famous Traders - Trend is your Friend. But you need to understand what your friend is trying to communicate to you. But having everything in place including trend, with problems like Requotes and Slippages, trendy trades can result to losses for which choosing a good broker is a must. I trade with TryMarkets and they provide the best execution in comparison to other brokers i have traded with. For best execution and error free trading i suggest TryMarkets as one of the most reliable broker around.

Forex is known as the largest economic business in the world where different types of brokers work as a media. There are some reasons which affect on market. Those effects are political and financial stability, political violence, bad condition of economy, inactive monetary. When that things are not fit then market moves fast but when it has stability market moves slow. Technical analysis works better here. So I like this business more among the online business. Besides technical analysis we also have to analyse Forex trend. I am trading with Trade12 which has a smooth platform that’s why I can analyze easily.

The popular online business is now currency trading. There are various reason for its popularity. And these can’t be count I guess. Also, to be successful in this sector every trader needs vast amount of forex knowledge and a good broker. Because traders are individual entity in forex who trades alone on their own way. I am with ECNCAPITAL who is the best broker in this rapidly growing financial market.

Much appreciation to you for this boggling writhing. I would expect more articles from you. I do love Options trading. I incline toward lxmarkets as one of the best options broker and i trade with them and never at whatever point found any issues with the trading and in like way withdrawal. I see that its dazzling broker. I am light to trade with such a standard broker with attractive in payout.

Without trend analysis we will have no signal. So we should be inept in trend analysis with trend line. Currencies are the main ingredient of trading here. Broker works here as a media. It’s such a tough task to choose a right broker. Trade12 I am trading with scam free and having low spread, high leverage, quick execution and high security level. They also offering a smooth platform to their traders.
